You're lucky, and I hope it keeps up. They're falling like 9 pins over here. Literally dozens of high-tech people I know are out of work, and 500 teachers are being laid off in the neighboring county to where my sister is trying to find a job-- so now she has 500 more people to compete with. I just had a long talk with a former boss who's out of work-- I think I know more people in telecommunications who are unemployed than are working at this point. It's all gone to India or the Philippines.

All you've got to do is choose love. That's how I live it now. I learned a long time ago, I can feed the birds in my garden. I can't feed them all. -- Ringo Starr, Rolling Stone magazine, May 2007<br />

^^^I am so sorry to hear that. That is suppossed to be that best thing about being a state worker is job security. I don't know what I would do if I lost my job. I mean I know my family wouldn't let me be on the streets and starve or anything, but its a scary thought.
